The next stage of flight tests of the TV7-117ST-01 engine for the Il-114-300 is completed

The new TV7-117ST-01 engines planned for installation on the Russian Il-114-300 passenger aircraft have successfully completed the testing phase as part of the Il-76LL flying laboratory. This was reported on the website of the state corporation "Rostec".

According to the report, the TV7-117ST-01 engines have successfully passed the next stage of testing and are fully ready for tests as part of the Il-114-300 airliner. Flight Research Institute. Gromov (LII), summing up the results of the four stages of testing these engines, is ready to issue a positive conclusion for the start of flights as part of the airliner after the power plant has successfully passed ground tests on the Il-114-300.

With the completion of the testing program at the flying laboratory, we are ready to move on to a new stage of testing - as part of the liner. Three power plants have already been delivered to PJSC "IL", for subsequent flight-design tests, five more engines will be delivered to the enterprise

- said in the UEC.

The Il-114-300 passenger aircraft is designed for operation on local airlines and is an upgraded version of the Il-114 turboprop aircraft. It is expected that the newest Il-114-300 will replace the aging An-24 and a number of similar foreign aircraft. It was separately noted that the aircraft is being created in cooperation with the most advanced Russian enterprises. It is capable of carrying up to 68 passengers over a distance of up to 1,5 thousand km.

Already outdated and the freshest cars are ancient. Although the PRC produces.

And the C-130 Hercules is not obsolete? Smart ass...

The AI-24 engine is made in Zaporozhye ... does that tell you anything?

So that's just the whole thing in the engine. The glider itself would have looked like ...

Those that actively flew, according to the diagnosis of microcracks, are already completely decrepit and they are written off without regard to the availability of replacement aircraft.
IL-114 has been in great need for a long time ...

It’s for nothing, in what conditions they are operated, not every aircraft will be able to fly yet. But you need your own plane, you can't count on Ukrainian components.

Oh, oh ... there have already been cases when these "Anas" fell apart, with human casualties. Not everything is so simple with their "gliders", each one needs to be CHECKED WELL.

What theater aircraft are modern? Only the A400 .... everything else is the same age.

[Zaurbek]

Moreover, the PRC and the theater of operations are making and importing them ...

In September 2017, began ...... Opensource projects. I hope for the sake of reliability, such a leisurely test.

I hope for reliability sake

(Basic) properties of reliability: reliability, serviceability, resources. Reliability is confirmed not by tests, but by mass operation in various conditions.

[Sergey Valov]

Resource and ease of maintenance have nothing to do with reliability. Reliability is also a mythical concept, any technique refuses. There is such a concept - the number of failures per hour of operating time, that's where you have to dance.

[iouris]

Indeed, technology fails. The "fail-safe" property can be replaced by the "fail-safe" property - this is a matter of taste. For some reason, you do not distinguish a property from a quantitative indicator, so the question is: do you have an engineering education or do you just THAT think that reliability is some kind of myth?

Will this engine differ greatly with the one that will be installed on the Il-112?

I have long been retired. Alas.

Aircraft engine testing is a lengthy process. First, individual units are tested on ground stands, then the finished engine is driven on a ground stand, and only after that the test engine is hung on an aircraft for flight tests. The test time is negatively affected by a lot of factors ranging from the need to recycle individual units and ending with the availability of free test stands.

[Rriv]

What engines did the "Uzbek" Il-114 fly? How much are the characteristics different?

[iouris]

All these engines are another deep modernization of the TV2-117, developed 65 years ago.

So what? There are such "modernizations" that at the exit a new "machine" turns out

And all the planes are a deep modernization of the Wright brothers' plane.

Uzbeks, like, flew on American ones.

Russian engine on a Russian plane ... Good news. We are waiting for successful tests on the plane and launch into the series!

[senima56]

You are a happy person - you have read the good news and are happy. Right. I, too, was such a "lucky" .... 20 years ago. I listened, believed, rejoiced like a child! True. No irony. But having not seen, practically, nothing positive in the domestic aircraft industry over these 20 years, except for unfulfilled promises, I no longer believe any "projects"!
In my opinion, if the Minister of Transport says: "In 2 (3,4, ...) we will lift the plane into the air!" Then let him answer for his words! Didn't pick it up? Drive out of ministers! There should be personal responsibility for the assigned work! Otherwise, we will listen to talkers like V. Mudko and O. Rogozin.

[Vladimir Mashkov]

ALL people fall into two categories: the first always sees the glass half FULL, and the second ALWAYS half EMPTY. I, although an elderly person, try to be in the first category. You, as I understand it, are from the second. They also say that when a person begins to grumble and grumble, he has become an old soul. I ALWAYS try NOT to grumble. Good day and every success!

[senima56]

Thank you for the answer. Believe me, I was also "in dreams and hopes" that everything would soon change, I waited, believed, hoped .... But time passed and nothing changed, and the dates of the first flights and tests were only moved (!!!!) to the right! Our only new product is "the best of the world with the analogue of the superior ..." SSJ turned out to be a failed project and no one answered for it. And the rest of the Il-112, Il-114, MS-21 - again to the right, to the right, to the right ... Yes, I grumble, because I consider myself a patriot of my country and it is bitter for me to observe where modern "menageries" are pulling our aviation industry! Who said recently: "Before, factories were run by engineers, but now managers (" menagers "in my opinion)!"
Yes, you are absolutely right about the "full glass", but there is another popular expression: "A pessimist is a well-informed former optimist!"
I am sure that YOU are also a patriot of Russia. I wish you all the best.
